I need a little help troubleshooting I believe. My system randomly turned off the other night. When I turn it off in the back and unplug it then turn it all back on again it turns on for half a second. That is it.
I later went ahead and cleaned the cpu fan. Turned it back on and it stayed on longer. Long enough for me to almost type in my password.
I am not positive how to troubleshoot this. Although I suspect I'm dealing with the PSU, my motherboard or just the power strip this is plugged into.
Any suggestions on how to better verify what the problem is? I'm not sure how to check if my PSU is faulty or not.
Thanks in advance.
